Bai Jinjin transmigrated into a book! She became a small cannon fodder who choked to death on lychees in a novel about a sister-chasing "cremation ground" plot (brothers regretting their pa...
After seeing the General Zhenguo leave, Bai Juncheng's face turned pale and he roared, "Investigate for me! Investigate for me what exactly is going on!"
Although it was said that Bai Lingling did it, it is indeed impossible to confirm it based on Bai Jinjin's one-sided statement alone, and it is very likely that the medicine was given by someone else. As the emperor, Bai Juncheng believed in Jinjin, but this could not convince the others.
When everyone saw Bai Juncheng getting angry, they all knelt on the ground and trembled, fearing that they would be implicated in this matter.
Bai Juncheng stared at Bai Lingling intently and said, "Such a filthy thing actually happened in this palace. It couldn't be done by just one person. I guess someone is helping her. Investigate it from the source!"
The guard beside him bowed and took some soldiers to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Bai Lingling almost fainted when she heard the word "thorough investigation", but she couldn't. Her previous behavior had already made people suspicious. If she fainted now, it would definitely be considered that she was afraid of being punished, which would probably confirm the matter.
You must not reveal any flaws. As long as you can remain calm at this time, all your previous actions can be regarded as weakness caused by not being able to bear the injustice or the blow.
Bai Lingling sat on the chair with her hands clenched tightly in her sleeves. Her well-maintained nails dug deep into her flesh without her realizing it.
Soon the imperial physician was brought up.
Bai Juncheng raised his eyebrows.
"Isn't this the imperial physician who just tested the poison? Aren't you brewing the medicine again?"
Upon hearing Bai Juncheng's question, the guard bowed and said, "I was following your Highness's instructions to question every palace maid, eunuch, and even the servants. Just as I was leaving, I saw the imperial physician take out a packet of powder and sprinkle it into the medicine. I felt suspicious, so I brought him here."
The imperial physician knelt on the ground, trembling and trembling, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health."
Bai Juncheng kicked the imperial physician angrily.
"How can I be blessed with a group of you doing such filthy things?"
The imperial physician was kicked upside down, but he quickly stood up and knelt in front of Bai Juncheng properly.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I don't know what I have done wrong. This powder is part of the medicine!"
Bai Juncheng looked at the imperial physician with narrowed eyes.
"I haven't said anything wrong yet."
Upon hearing this, the imperial physician's heart skipped a beat but he still gritted his teeth and said that he was innocent.
Bai Juncheng now completely doesn't trust the imperial physician brought by Qiu Lie.
"Eunuch Li! Return to the palace!"
When everyone heard that the emperor was going back to the palace, they looked at each other and had an idea in their mind that this matter might not end so easily.
A group of people rode back to the palace at full speed. In the Xuanzheng Hall, Bai Juncheng, dressed in court robes, looked at the imperial physician kneeling in front of him with cold eyes.
"I have already sent for Imperial Physician Chang. You said that the powder was part of the medicine. I will not argue with you for now. I will make a decision after Imperial Physician Chang arrives."
When the imperial physician heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead with his clothes.
Bai Jinjin was about to laugh out loud when watching from the side, but since the occasion was not right, she tried to hold it back.
"Doctor, you've been sweating all the time, but are you hiding something from us?"
When the imperial physician heard Bai Jinjin's question, he was startled and said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness the Ninth Princess. I'm fine."
Bai Jinjin nodded when she heard this. Oh? Nothing? Okay. Then I'll pray that you're really okay.
Bai Lingling, who was standing by, was extremely frightened. If the imperial physician said anything, she would be in great trouble.
Bai Juncheng glanced at everyone present. Some of them hung their heads as if they had done something wrong. Seeing this, Bai Juncheng snorted coldly. These people must have done these things many times. If that was the case, then let's do it together today!
The guard suddenly appeared and handed Bai Juncheng a list. After reading the list, Bai Juncheng's face looked extremely ugly. Look what he found. He actually found out that his Jinjin had also been poisoned.
He slammed the list in his hands together with both hands.
"Bring Concubine Kang up here!"
The guards went straight to Concubine Kang's palace. Concubine Kang actually thought that her good day had come and wore an exquisite peony flower on her head.
After entering the hall, he saluted as if trying to play hard to get.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."
Bai Juncheng, who was furious, stepped forward and grabbed Concubine Kang's neck.
"How dare you! How dare you poison my Jinjin!"
After hearing this, Concubine Ye could no longer sit still.
"What?! How dare you, a bitch, harm my Jinjin?"
After saying that, he rushed forward and slapped Concubine Kang a few times. Bai Jinjin saw that something was not right and stepped forward to pull Concubine Ye away.
"Mom, calm down. Daddy will take care of this matter."
After hearing this, Concubine Ye gradually calmed down her anger and took Bai Jinjin to sit aside.
When Concubine Kang, whose cheeks were already swollen, heard this, her eyes were filled with fear.
What she had done had gone unnoticed for so many years, so why was it exposed now? She wanted to defend herself, she wanted to beg for mercy, but Bai Juncheng held her throat tightly and she could not say anything except the feeling of suffocation.
Seeing that she was about to roll her eyes, Bai Juncheng let go of her hand and let Concubine Kang fall freely.
Kang Guiren, who finally breathed in the fresh air, breathed in greedily, trying to defend herself in her heart, but she never expected.
Bai Juncheng gave an order.
"Come here! Drag Concubine Kang out and behead her!"
Concubine Kang's face suddenly changed and she hugged Bai Juncheng's thighs crying.
"Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me!"
Bai Juncheng raised his leg and kicked Concubine Kang out. Concubine Kang wanted to ask for help but was dragged out by the guards as soon as she opened her mouth. She could only keep shouting for the emperor to spare her life.
The atmosphere in the hall was extremely heavy. No one expected that the emperor would actually behead Concubine Kang.
The person who was most shocked was Bai Lingling. She didn't expect that if this matter was discovered, she would be sentenced to death.
At this time, Doctor Chang came out with the results. He walked up to Bai Juncheng and was about to salute when Bai Juncheng stopped him with a frown.
"No need to be so polite, just tell me what the result is."
Doctor Chang said expressionlessly, "If you use a small amount of this medicine, it will only make people unconscious, but if you use a whole packet, it will be a lethal dose."
The imperial physician collapsed to the ground. He had clearly only put in a small amount, but suddenly he remembered that he had sprinkled all the powder in the medicine bag into the medicine when he was taken away by the guards!
Seeing that the imperial physician hadn't spoken, Bai Juncheng said with murderous intent in his eyes, "Imperial physician, why don't you tell the truth? If you tell the truth, perhaps I can spare your life!"
